PAMPLONA, Spain (AP) The first bull run in three years took place Thursday at the San Fermín festival in the Spanish city of Pamplona. No one was gored, but several runners took knocks and hard falls as tens of thousands people reveled in the return of one of Europes most famous traditional events.
Six bulls guided by six tame oxen charged through Pamplonas streets for around two minutes and 35 seconds without provoking too much carnage among the thousands of observers and participants cramming the course.
Several runners were stomped, trampled or shoved to the cobblestone pavement. A animals horn smacked at least two men in the head, but neither suffered a skewering.
The Pamplona hospital said six people were brought in for treatment. They included a 30-year-old American man who fractured his left arm and a 16-year-old Spanish girl who lost part of a finger in the bullring, where a pile-up of runners occurred at the entrance. Four Spanish men between the ages of 19 and 45 also were injured.

Was on my dad's boat for the summer, we were docked there, now they'd probably jail him for abuse, lol.
